Recommend work up prior to GA as informs our anaesthetic management and planning. Mrs agrees, outlined VN echo vs JR in house La:AO and thoracic rads. Mrs opted for in house w JR. Pre - GA bloods: no JR POCUS, LaAO and chest rads at 10Needs methadone if continuing with incisional biopsyJR: Attempted LA:Ao multiple times, in standing and in lateral on cardiac table. Unable to get optimal view for La:Ao measurement. Impression is that LA is normal and not enlarged, however overlying rib obscures free atrial wall. ONce anaesthetised, Best view is La:Ao of 1.12:1 3 view chest rads - VHS is 9.5, pulmonary a & v same size. No signs pumonary effusion. No metastases apparent in any views Assessment: Suspect stage B1 MMVD and no indication for pimobendan at present. Proceed with GA and lump removal. Recommend repeat (ideally full echo) in 6-12 months as a smaller footprint cardiac probe will improve image acquisition to assess for progression to B2. Induce with     ml alfaxan, place ET tube and maintain on iso/O2.  IV fluids at  25  ml/hr throughout Procedure: Explore and excisional or incisional biopsy w STMass is subdermal, not attached to skin 2cm x 4.5cm superficially, larger when skin reflected.  Incised over tumour at cranial aspect  of LHL at mid tibia. Blunt dissected around mass to distal and lateral extent. Mass involves entire muscle belly of cranial tibialis, with poorly defined margins, haemorrhagic cavitations, and continuing cranially towards stifle. Unable to resect with good margins, concern reflexion of tarsus without muscle.  Took 1-2cmsq tissue sample for histopathology. Significant bleeding of mass. Closed muscle w 3/0 monoplus interrupteds, SC w 3/0 monosyn interrupteds, and skin w 3/0 daffilon cruciate. Applied primapore bandage GA monitoring - BP, SpO2, HR, RR and temp monitored throughout Active warming during GA GA complications and actions: noneWoke up well, recovered on bair hugger and heat mats.
